The gradual development of a species into a new one to survive.

• Evolution
• Natural Selection
• Extinction
• Artificial Selection

Which statement best describes the process of evolution?

• Populations can survive in different locations on earth
• Environmental conditions limit the number of species on Earth
• Populations grow when resources are abundant
• The traits of a species can change over time

Modern whales developed their traits through natural selection.  What occurs during the process of natural selection?

• Organisms choose mates from other species to create new species
• Breeders selectively cross organisms with desired traits
• Only the fittest organisms can survive and reproduce
• Organisms remain exactly the same over time.

In natural selection, the selective agent is the

• humans
• mutations
• breeders
• environment

Which of the following describes natural selection

• it acts on genetic material directly
• it acts on existing physical traits
• it forms new traits 
• it forms new genetic material

Natural selection can also be referred to as:

• Survival of the weakest
• Survival
• Survival of the fittest
• Artificial selection
